Gladiator: Anatomy of a Prison Murder (R, 2002)

The Wolf of Wall Street (movie)

The River Wild
Most movies that star Kevin Bacon have him as a lovable person. The River Wild is one of those movies that’s a bit different because it turns the guy who usually plays a hero into the villain and the contrast works.
The thing I like about The River Wild is …
